Ode to the Pot Belly
Ode to the Pot Belly
As you can see now my girth is real big
My appetite is huge and I eat like a pig
Food is my pleasure, my joy and my fun
I’d kill an old lady for just one sticky bun!
I dream at night of what I’ll eat the next day
And no one dares to get in my way
I can’t stop eating, I’m like an eating machine,
A vacuum cleaner with teeth, if you know what I mean
The IHOP is my favourite place to chow down
I eat so much there I’m the talk of the town
Food is my life down to the last crust
It’s been such a blast until I finally did bust
One day I’ll be thin and achieve this great feat
Because I’ll be dead and unable to eat.
